
In any electrical application, some current will flow through
the protective ground conductor to the ground, this is called
leakage current. It takes 4 mA (0.004 A) and higher of leakage
current from the hot wire to the ground to cause a GFCI to trip.
On circuits protected by GFCI's, leakage current can cause
unnecessary and intermittent tripping.
Some stationary motors, such as a bathroom vent fan,
fluorescent lighting fixtures or some refrigerators, may produce
enough leakage to cause nuisance tripping. To avoid nuisance
tripping, a GFCI should not supply:
– Fluorescent or other types of electric-discharge lighting
fixtures.
– Permanently installed electric motors, like air conditioners,
furnaces or refrigerators.

Stopping the Engine

1. Turn off and unplug all connected electrical loads. Never start
or stop the generator with electrical devices plugged in or
turned on.
2. Let the generator run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of the engine and generator.
3. Press the ignition switch to the "OFF" position.

4. Turn the fuel valve to the "OFF" position.
Important: Always ensure that the fuel valve and the ignition
switch are in the "OFF" position when the generator is not in use.
If the engine will not be used for a period of two (2) weeks or
longer, please see the Storage section for proper engine and
fuel storage.

Moving the Generator

– NEVER lift or carry the generator using the folding handle.
– NEVER tilt sideways while moving the generator.
– ALWAYS place the generator on its wheels in the upright
position.
– ALWAYS turn the generator off and ensure the fuel valve is
closed.
– ALWAYS make sure engine and muffler are cooled down
before the generator can be handled safely (typically 15-30
minutes).
The folding handle is not long enough to hold and walk with a
full stride when moving the generator. Always side step as you
walk to avoid injury to your heels and/or feet. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in personal injury or damage to
the generator.
1. Begin by raising the folding handle, found on opposite side of
wheels.
2. Using the handle, tilt the end of the generator slightly off the
ground until balanced on the wheels.
